HERNANDEZ-LOPEZ, Ybrain; RIVAS-PEREZ, Raúl  e  FELIU-BATLLE, Vicente. Automatic control of water distribution in irrigation systems: review and challenges. EAC [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.2, pp.80-97.  Epub 01-Ago-2020. ISSN 1815-5928.

In this paper, a review of the state of the art of the control strategies used for the water distribution control in irrigation systems is developed, aimed at increasing the operability of these systems, as well as reducing water losses due to operation. The historical advances of this kind of control systems are shown. Finally, some of the challenges of the international scientific community are offered to continue improving the capability and performance of the controllers used in irrigation systems.

Palavras-chave : Irrigation systems; water distribution; automatic control; irrigation canals; dominant time delay.
